Critics charge that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is abusing the perks of power by asking for a jumbo military jet with sleeping accommodations for her flights across the country.

After the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the Pentagon agreed to provide the speaker, who is second in the line of presidential succession, with a military plane for added security during trips back home.

Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert, an Illinois Republican, flew in a small commuter-sized Air Force jet.

Pelosi wants a larger aircraft that can fly to her San Francisco district without stopping to refuel.

Some sources are claiming that Pelosi demanded access to the C-32, which seats 45 and has a stateroom for the primary passenger, a conference facility, an entertainment system and three convertible beds.

'Some sources are claiming that Pelosi demanded access to the C-32, which seats 45 and has a stateroom for the primary passenger, a conference facility, an entertainment system and three convertible beds.

But the Los Angeles Times reports that the military passenger plane that can make a cross-country flight in any weather and also provide the communications needed to stay in contact with the White House is the C-40, which is described by the Air Force as an "office in the sky.”

Derived from the Boeing 737-700C, it can seat up to 120 passengers and has beds and two galleys.'


And don't forget, 'Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert, an Illinois Republican, flew in a small commuter-sized Air Force jet.'

I don't think she realizes how that looks to the country.
-----
She is as stupid as Kerry when it comes to appearances. Total dolts. I had the high honor of hearing her speak one time (the last time) and saw her virtually get laughed off the podium when she started in about the "vast right wing conspiracy"...such fools the empty socialists are. (chuckle)

Thank you voters for this nice gift for America.

It just isn't worth arguing about. Makes us look petty.

'Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert, an Illinois Republican, flew in a small commuter-sized Air Force jet.'

I think her actions make demorats look gaudy.

Nancy Pelosi Wants Bedroom on Jet

and kinda kinky too.

I think that what bothers me the most is that she is stressing the war on terror in order to obtain a larger plane while she has gone on record downplaying the war on terror. I guess she only wants us at war for her convenience.

Is this specific enough?

-- The forward area has a communications center, galley, lavatory and 10 business class seats.
-- The second section is a fully enclosed stateroom for the use of the primary passenger. It includes a changing area, private lavatory, separate entertainment system, two first-class swivel seats and a convertible divan that seats three and folds out to a bed.
-- The third section contains the conference and staff facility with eight business class seats.
-- The rear section of the cabin contains general seating with 32 business-class seats, galley, two lavatories and closets.

Salacious Ping List ping!

[xcamel]

exactly the opposite, it makes her look like exactly what she is - just another limousine liberal, drunk on power and perceived status. A damned legend in her own mind.
When she gets to be POTUS she can have what ever plane she wants - as long as it's AF-1

[grjr21]

And that is a bad thing because...?

  It may lead to dancing     ;-)

Just give her a supersonic broom, and be done with it.

Yea, one that will go to the moon, Alice.

[smoothsailing]

This plane can get Queen Nancy to the west coast from D.C. non-stop if she just keeps on pushing the pedals! :-)

[swheats]

Has anyone did the numbers to see how much this would cost? Compared to other speakers, how much would this cost taxpayers? How many times has Pelosi traveled home in past years?

To think these are democrats they are expensive. This money could be used to fund this war.

[do the dhue]

LOL

[CFC__VRWC]

Dollars to donuts she will try to put the air force in jail for not accommodating her as her servants.

She's already got Murtha making noise about cutting funding to the Pentagon if they don't accede to her demands.

[right-wingin_It]

It's about the BLING BLING, y'all

"Pelosi wants to join the mile high club Ewwwwwww!!!"

Maybe Bill Clinton would do her; I can't think of anyone else with so little taste or so strong a stomach.
